Deck builder and dock repair
in Wilmington, NC.
SJB Contracting builds and rebuilds composite and pressure-treated decks and stairs in Wilmington and coastal NC, and repairs the dock you already have. A dock can often be repaired if the pilings are sound: we rebuild the decking, railings, stairs, gangways and the roof on a covered dock. We don't set new pilings. Jay checks yours first and tells you straight what shape they are in.
Built for salt air.
Sun, salt and storms are hard on anything built outside. Jay looks at what is solid and what is not, tells you straight whether to repair or rebuild, and gives you one written price.

From the first walk
to the last photo.
Jay walks it with you
Jay comes out, looks at the house with you and talks through what you want and what it will take.
One written price
You get one written price and a schedule before any work starts. If we find hidden damage, you see photos and a written price before anything extra is done.
We run every trade
Our crews and licensed trade partners, hired, scheduled and checked by us. Permits pulled where the code requires them.
Photos the whole way
Before, during and after photos, sent to you even when you are away, and a final walk-through when the work is done.
Straight answers.
What homeowners ask Jay before a deck or a dock repair.
Composite or pressure-treated?
We build with both. Jay walks you through the difference in upkeep, look and cost for your spot before you decide.
Can my dock be repaired instead of replaced?
Often, if the pilings are sound. We repair or rebuild what sits on them: decking, railings, stairs, gangways and the roof on a covered dock. We don't set new pilings. That takes a marine crew, so Jay checks yours first and tells you straight.
Does a dock repair need a permit?
It depends on the work. Replacing boards, railings and stair treads usually does not. Framing repairs usually do, and new wiring always does. Jay tells you what yours needs, and we pull the permits where the code requires them.
What railings do you build?
Cable and composite railings, built to code on decks, stairs and docks.
What areas do you serve?
